This relationship between the traffic parameters results many researches yielded many mathematical models named Traffic flow models. This paper presents an overview of two great approaches of traffic flow: macroscopic and microscopic models. We aim to provide an historical overview of the development of microscopic models, particularly car-following models which are fundamental in the replication of traffic flow and thus they have received considerable attention. In this work, we present a survey of recent researches based on the optimal velocity model proposed by Bando and we discuss the capability of these models, their strong points and also their weakness.}, number={2}, journal={Periodica Polytechnica Transportation Engineering}, author={Lazar, Hajar and Rhoulami, Khadija and Rahmani, Driss}, year={2016}, pages={123–131} }
